tub problems/ everything problems

This house building experience is beginning to wear me down. Today I dropped a 2x4 from upstairs, guess where it landed. Right inside the downstairs bath tub/ shower module. It knocked a hole in it too, a small hole but a hole. Question, can this be fixed or do I have to take that module out and install a new one? It's a one piece fiberglass unit by Manchester. If anything else happens I'm going to bulldoze this thing down and move on.

LazyPup is on a distinguished road
fortunately it is fiberglass...Fiberglass tubs are made of exactly the same material as fiberglass boats, fiberglass cloth, roving or chopped fiberglass and resin and finished with gelcoat.

YOu can use a fiberglass marine repair kit to patch the hole and replace the gelcoat for a totally invisible patch.
